The SoundWare speakers pivot on their mounts. Vertically they can go from facing straight out to being tilted down 40 degrees. When the flat wall mounting bracket is used they can pivot side to side 20 degrees. (Note: Corner mounting will not allow the speaker to pivot side-to-side.) Loosen the pivot set screw on the front of the pivoting ball mount, pivot the speaker into position and retighten the screw.

The SoundWare speakers can also be mounted using the supplied corner bracket.

Subwoofer Connections

NOTE: Power is always supplied to the subwoofer electronics unless it is unplugged or switched to the off position using the power switch located on the rear panel. The auto-on circuitry only activates or deactivates the power amplifier. Make sure your subwoofer and receiver are unplugged when making the connection.

Power: When plugging your subwoofer in be sure to use a wall outlet, or dedicated electrical outlet. Some receivers will provide a switched outlet. Do not use this. These on board electrical outlets do not offer the amount of current or proper isolation required by a power amplifier, such as the one in your amplifier.

Select ”subwoofer-yes” from your receiver’s set-up menu. If the receiver gives a choice of crossover filter frequency, use 150Hz or 120Hz. Hooked up this way, the receiver’s amplifier is relieved of having to reproduce the difficult low bass signals that can drive the receiver into audible distortion. In some cases, it can also depend on several other settings within a receiver. We recommend consulting your receiver manual for further assistance in this area.

Turn off all power. Use a subwoofer cable, as shown, to connect your digital receiver’s LFE subwoofer output to the subwoofer. Connect the other end to the Line In.

Adjusting the Crossover Control

Set the crossover control on the subwoofer to 180Hz. Fine-tune the crossover setting by ear for the smoothest blend with your main speakers. The best setting of the crossover control will depend on speaker placement and personal preference.
